Akira Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Natural selection is the process by which favorable heritable traits become more common in successive generations of a population of reproducing organisms' date=' and unfavorable heritable traits become less common[/i'] In other words, organisms adapt and change to suit their environment, and that's the way it always has been until humans showed up. We do the complete opposite; we change the environment to suit ourselves. Well, we would do that, wouldn't we? We're the most advanced race on the planet and you can't progress without development... ...but does this mean that humankind will never evolve? Share your opinions.

Catman25 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Humankind will evolve, as others evolve to suit what we've done to them. Might not make sense but oh well, we will evolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrometheusMFD Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Mankind will end up killing himself becuase mankind does not believe that mankind should exist in the world. ~OR~ Zombies will overthrow the world. I personally do not believe in Evolution. Partly because the chances of it are too low, partly because the guy who popularized it, Charles Darwin, was a huge racist and pessimist.And I don't like following those kinds of people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Zero Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 I say yes we have evolved. But I doubt we will evolve any further seeing as how if we face a problem we invent something to do it for us. No room for improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been evolving. The difference is; the most evolution that we have been able to study is psychological progression and technological progression. We don't literally grow fins or find a way to filter feed on air; we actually expand our on minds. An example of our evolution would be from using swords to using guns. Or from riding horse-back to driving cars. We don't really change the environment as far as that goes anyway. :| Our evolution is our mind.
